Thanks. I tested these two forms and it's truly lovely:
my $x = slurp($fname) err die("slurp '$fname' failed");
my @x = slurp($fname) err die("slurp '$fname' failed");
I have two more questions:
1) Error Handling.
Is 'err' correct above? Or should it be 'or'? Or a try block?
2) Documentation.
Where is the slurp built-in documented? I couldn't find it
in any of the Synopses (including Rod Adams' recent S29).
In desperation, I googled and found CPAN Perl6::Slurp.
